Speaker 1 (00:00):
They should rename this Executive Orders Day, a national holiday
that actually started yesterday.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Hey, everything else got renamed, why not?
Speaker 1 (00:10):
Yeah, he renamed Mount McKinley Mount McKinley, right.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
It had been called Denali for the past decade or so,
but he wants the former president to be honored with
his name on the mountain again. And he renamed the
Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of America. That's a bit
trickier process, but it was interesting. With that snowstorm arriving
in Florida, Governor ron Dea Santis declared a state of
emergency yesterday. In the very first line of the state
(00:37):
of emergency, it says because of a low pressure system
approaching from the Gulf of America that they would blah
blah blah blah blah.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
Well, I guess we can call it anything we want to,
but that's not really how it goes.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
Now.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
He does have the authority to rename things within our borders,
I guess, like the mountain.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
Right, Well, there is a whole naming commission that goes
through that, but he can make recommendations and it's a process.
And then internationally, you know, if Brazil is sending up
a shipload of coffee beans. They're still going to call
it the Gulf of Mexico, not necessarily the Gulf of America,
because there are international rules about that.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
On a more serious notes, the big one I think
is and he knows, and he knew all through the
campaign that the big item for Americans was the border,
and he's gotten very serious about that one.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Right, taking some aggressive actions ending birthright citizenship for those
children who are born here of people not in the US. Legally,
there's going to expect a constitutional challenge on that one,
so that'll be interesting. Also declaring a state of emergency
at the southern border, which might give him a lot
more authority to deploy US troops to try to stop
(01:48):
the illegal immigration. So yeah, a lot of this is
going to be border related. Plus he's got his borders
are preparing to have a lot of these extraditions. I
guess you'd call them to start happening rather quickly.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
Yeah, I've heard home and say, Tom Holman, the borders
are say that. He said, Look, because people ask them
how you're going to find these people? He said, Look,
there's some things I can't tell you, but we know
about a lot about where a lot of them are,
so that I don't know how much light is going
to be shed on that when they catch criminals, and
(02:24):
I support them, but I hope a lot. I hope
we get to see that, and I hope we see
the results of that. That'll be good. What do you think?
Speaker 2 (02:31):
What do you think that first?
Speaker 1 (02:34):
How do you think the other high profile, most high
profile orders are.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
I think, of the day yesterday, it's all about the pardons.
And I say that with an S because I'm applying
it to Joe Biden and Donald Trump. The Biden pardons
certainly raising eyebrows when it comes to doctor Fauci, the
January sixth Committee, things like that, but really when it
comes to his siblings and their spouses, those were announced
just moments before Donald Trump took the oath, and then
the pardons of everyone on January sixth. I thought that
(03:02):
even his supporters, donald Trump supporters, were all expecting pardons
for people that were trespassing or that interfering in the
process of government, whatever that charge was. But thought there
would be more of a carve out and that people
who were found guilty of injuring police officers or attacking
police would have to serve their sentence. But no, he
(03:22):
cleaned the slate.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Well, not one hundred percent. He commuted some of them
to time served by right, but the rest. And I
don't know who would disagree with this sitting in there
for four years because you were walking around in the capitol.
I mean, come on, right, that's.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
That's where I think there was even Look, the members
of both parties are squirming about the pardons that were
issued by their presidents. I don't think Democrats are happy
with the preemptive stuff. I don't think a lot of
Republicans are happy that some of the people who attacked
police officers are being set free. And that's also included
in this. And again for the people that were walking
(04:06):
through and you know, got that nonsense charge about disrupting
an official function, Yeah, that stuff could all. You didn't
hurt anybody, You're just walking through. But if you attacked
an officer, if you brought an axe, if you brought
bear spray and used it on officers, or were stabbing
flag poles at police offerers, maybe there should be consequences
for that.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
I think so. I think so. I want to get
more details on that, and we will and just quickly,
Rory before we run. They're looking for the wind, the
big Santa Ana wind back in LA and I've heard
the two major fires are substantially contained, but they're still
danger if the wind gets up like it did before, right.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
Exactly, so that Palisades fire almost sixty six zero percent
contained as of yesterday morning. Again, we are concerned the
winds are back and could whip up those those embers
that really spread these fires, the Eaten fire, the Altadena
Palisades one that's about eighty seven percent contained. So these
fire crews were able to make a lot of ground
(05:08):
while the winds had died down these past four or
five days, but are concerned that they could lose a
lot of ground if these winds are bad. Look, the
fact that the winds are coming back also means they
may not be able to fly as many planes and
helicopters to fight these fires. You've seen the video. Those
are really where they are helping to win the battle
here as they try to stop the spread of the lie.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
I wanted they get Did they at least get the
water supply replenished?
Speaker 2 (05:32):
Well, yeah, but well it's been replenished in neighborhoods that
are already destroyed, so you know sad it really is, Rory.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
Thanks
